UK and EU negotiators have now agreed in principle the full legal text of a Withdrawal Agreement, setting the terms of the UK’s smooth and orderly exit from the EU. This is a decisive step forward and puts us close to a Brexit deal.

Completion of the Paks II project, the expansion of Hungaryʼs Paks Nuclear Power Plant, may be postponed until 2032, instead of the official 2026-27 deadline, according to a report by Hungarian daily newspaper Népszava.

A business analyst who has been sceptical until now of the government’s maths on the financial viability of the new nuclear blocks to be built at Paks, now believes that the project might become profitable as a result of the unexpected but steady rise in international electricity prices. Construction is due to begin this year.

Transportation network operator Taxify is set to launch the test phase of its ride-sharing service in Debrecen in a few weeks, after the conclusion of the search for drivers in the city, according to a press release.

Tourism is adding more and more to Hungary’s GDP, Péter Szijjártó, the foreign affairs and trade minister, said on the sidelines of the Dubrovnik ministerial conference on cooperation between China and 16 central and eastern European countries.
